No matter how much we prepare for something, we will never be ready enough before we make the first step. Preparation can eliminate some anxiety, but we need some stress just to push us enough to get through the process. We have to perform in front of the world to see so other may take notice. Hiding isn’t going to help us if we want to grow. We all have trepidations about what we can do and we want to do things well all of the time. We want to do things well because we still want to please others. But it’s all right to please ourselves too. We can enjoy ourselves just as much as the next person.
